 MONDAY:   I met up with Jan at the Y, and then went to my appt with Dr. Chubineh, then I had a quick lunch at McDonalds, went to Citizens Bank to deposit a check and them to WalGreens where I met up with Karen, a volunteer from HEARTS and HANDS.  She drove me to my ENT appointment in Williamsville.  I was pretty much released from returning, but can call if I have any problems and want to be seen.  I enjoyed getting to know Karen, she has been battling cancer for the last year and a half and has had surgery and chemo and radiation.  Still, she has the energy to help others.  I spent the rest of the day at home, resting and putting away stuff from the Allegany trip.  I still have a bit to do.  I called Maggie in the evening to remind her of tomorrow's Life Group since she said she wanted to go to it.  I left a voice mail, but she did not get back to me. TUESDAY:  I went to the TUESDAY MORNING LADIES LIFE GROUP.  There were nine of us in attendance.  They were discussing going out f

SUNDAY September 29th, 2024:  Maggie and I left my house at 10:35. On the way down to ASP, we made 3 wrong turns, so it took 4 hours to get to Salamanca, which is normally a ninety-minute drive.   But considering we spent close to an hour at KROLICK's (where we had chicken and rib dinners for our lunch) we did not lose a whole lot of time.  When we got to Salamanca we had hoped to get wood at the supermarket, but they did not have any bundled.  We tried the place where Cindi, Mary and I got wood a few years ago (Adirondack something or other) but they were closed for the day. When we got into the park, we stopped first at the Red House Administration Bldg. to get a map and then we drove down to Quaker.  I registered us and got the key, and we found Parallel 15.  We liked it!!! We got unpacked and settled and then sat outside for a while before a light supper of sandwiches and chips. We made a list of items we need to purchase when we go back to Salamanca tomorrow for wood and gas.

 SUNDAY:  I watched the church service online.  Craig and Jen announced their vision for Freedom Church's future, which is GROWTH.   I cannot say that I am happy about this.  Mostly because when I first became a Christian in 1972, the Pastor had a vision for growth, also.  The vision never materialized, but the church survived.         I still feel fine and don't think I have picked up COVID.  I will stay home until it is time to go out tomorrow evening for my sleep study UNLESS I start to feel sick tomorrow and if that happens, I will call Sleep Insights and see if they think I should reschedule. I went over to Peggys house to see if a package has been delivered.  It has not.  I went to Walmart and purchased a rotisserie chicken and then to Little Caeser's where I purchased the lunch special again.  It really is a good deal.  I had three pieces of pizza for lunch.  I took a nap in the afternoon.  I started reading the book TERRI THE TRUTH by Michael Schiavo.  It is interes

 SUNDAY: I slept pretty good, after taking 2 Tylenol PM.  I drove to Barker to meet up with Marlene and the others.  Got loaded onto the bus and we were given goody bags and we got name tags and itineraries.  First stop Waterloo at the OUTLET MALL, where we used restrooms,  Next stop Salmon Run Mall in Watertown, NY.  Marlene and I got food at Mexican place called ELgran Patron.  I had two chicken tacos and rice, and then we continued on.  Getting through the border was quick and easy which gave us extra time.  Our driver knew of a nice spot to take an extra break.  Rockport, Ontario  A group picture was taken   and Marlene and I went into the General Store/Gift Shop.  I purchased a kids size cone raspberry sorbet which was very good. Supper at BUSTER's in Kanata, Ontario was very good.  Got to know Laurie and Art and Shirley and Sharon a bit.  Then to our hotel in Gatineau, Quebec City, Quebec. The Parliament Building which we drove by is beautiful. I had a hard time getting ont
